Digital 3D Potential and the Limitations 4: Environments

With digital 3D, environments are incredibly easy. A lot of the things you have to learn and practice drawing extensively can be done with a click of a button. Lighting and glowing objects in particular are extremely easy to create, and with the huge amount of settings and options. Drawing perspective no longer is an issue, as you make the objects and then move the camera around to get the perspective. Furthermore, texturing couldn't be easier. Maya has a few built in textures that can be overlayed on top of each other, and just like every other ability in Maya, there are no end of settings to make surfaces more or less reflective, more or less transparent, the possibilities are endless.
